I seriously never planned to be away from the blog for this long....
but for reals we have been so super busy!
How about a little random recap okay?
♥Easter was fantastic:)
♥The kids report cards could not have been any better:)
♥May is already booked to the max...I couldn't fit another thing on the calendar if I tried.
♥We got a new couch:)
♥The new couch also lead to new curtains and new throw pillows...(pics coming soon since I am still waiting on a couple of pillows from Etsy:)
♥it also lead to a few DIY projects....
I so wish I had taken a before shot of this ugly TV cabinet. You all know how much I love woodgrain in my scrappy projects right? Well....I got a woodgraining tool from the hardware store for $4 and this is the end result. It looks 10 times better IRL but hopefully you can see how cool the effect is! Here's a closeup of the job halfway through....
Let's see....what else???
♥Evan was the narrator and director of a small play at school. He made me so proud:)
♥♥♥and....somewhere between the last 4 or 5 Board meetings at school Hubby decided that he would run for an open seat and we have been swamped with getting petitions signed....more meetings and meet the candidates events...craziness....but so worth it:)
♥Oh yeah....and....be sure to stay tuned to the Nikki Sivils blog because somebody I know just might be Willie B's Guest Designer over there this month;)
That's probably all of the random that you can handle for one day isn't it? Happy Tuesday friends!! I'll be back much sooner this time with lots of scrappiness to share:)
sounds busy but lots of fun!!! LOVE the cabinet that is sooo cool!!!!

I wondered where you've been! It looks like you have had some crazy busy days with more ahead. Your TV cabinet looks great & I can't wait to see your completed room.
